Marriott India Hotels & Resorts has entered into a sponsorship agreement with the Rajasthan Royals team for the fourth edition of the domestic T20 club cricket tournament – the DLF IPL 2011. The international hotel major will be the principal hospitality sponsors for the team as they tour around India for the games.
Rajasthan Royals will sport the Marriott logo on their on-field jerseys while Marriott will use the Rajasthan Royal team logo in all its promotional activities. This strategic tie-up builds on the ethos of both brands which are poised for future growth. Marriott currently has 12 operating hotels across India with 35 under construction and 6 new properties scheduled to open this year.
Mr Rajeev Menon, Area Vice President, India, Malaysia, Maldives and Australia, said “Rajasthan Royals is one of the favourite teams in the tournament given their past performances and we are delighted to be associated with a team that has tremendous potential. Marriott’s association drives huge benefit as our hotels are ideally suited for the players and their fan base as they tour the country in their endeavour to win the IPL championship.
